told them that my grandmother had come to see me the night before. I could see the glances they gave each other, and no one spoke for a while.
Finally my mother asked me how her mother had looked when I saw her. I told her she looked really happy. My mother cried a lot when I told her that, but said it made her feel so much better.
Bad Vibrations
We like to take Sunday drives in the country and would often pass a quaint turn-of-the-century farmhouse that sits on top of a hill along a rural road just outside of town. I always thought it was abandoned. It wasn’t boarded up, but there was never a vehicle or person anywhere around.
And I could never understand why it was not being lived in; I always enjoyed looking at it whenever our drives took us in that direction. So one day when we noticed a “For Sale” sign on the front lawn and another sign at the base of the long driveway indicating there was an open house that afternoon, I was curious to have a better look at it.
My husband wanted to see it too, so we pulled over to the side of the road and parked the car. As we walked toward the house, I realized for the first time what a fair distance the house was from the road, and as we got closer I started to get the weirdest feeling. I almost felt sick, I was feeling so anxious. I felt so stressed I just wanted to leave before we even entered the house, but had no idea why. I had felt fine in the car. That feeling just came out of nowhere and hit me so hard.
There were a few other couples wandering around the house and grounds. Every room had been freshly painted, and the floors had all been redone. But I couldn’t shake that awful feeling, no matter how nice it looked. My husband was more interested in the plumbing and electrical service, though, and said he didn’t have that same creepy feeling that I did.
